RTR EXTRA: Tottenham 3-1 Nottingham Forest

Jack is joined by Billie T to reflect on Tottenham’s 3-0 win at West Ham and what feels like the start of a proper new era under Thomas Frank. The pair discuss how Spurs are looking more organised, the growing debate around João Palhinha’s place in midfield, and the rise of Pape Matar Sarr who’s emerging as one of the league’s brightest young talents. They also praise Lucas Bergvall’s superb headed goal before turning attention to Tuesday night’s Champions League clash with Villarreal and daring to dream of biggest of European glories.

Jack is joined by Ben Bowman during the international break to ask the big question: do Spurs fans really enjoy supporting England, and does the number of Arsenal players in the squad take away from it? The conversation moves on to Tottenham talking points, including why Randal Kolo Muani may have been an under-appreciated signing and the excitement around Xavi Simons stepping up as the face of the club and a genuine franchise player. Ben then fields your questions: what will be the biggest change in a post-Levy era, will Thomas Frank face added pressure to win silverware under the new regime, and how did a joke about Viktor Gyökeres in jeans end up going viral after his appearance on The Overlap?

On this episode of Rule the Roost, Jack and Phil reflect on Daniel Levy’s Tottenham career following last week’s announcement of his departure. Levy built a reputation as a ruthless and cut-throat chairman, but why do we feel strangely sympathetic now he’s gone? We also look at the latest Spurs takeover rumours, with reports that two bids have already been turned down, and ask whether a buyout could be on the horizon or if ENIC Tavistock will cling on to power. Elsewhere, we discuss Mathys Tel speaking out after being omitted from the Champions League squad and why we’re backing him to bounce back. And for some reason Tom Hardy’s Bane voice gets a mention.

Jack is joined once again by Paul O Keefe to reflect on Tottenham’s transfer window. With several proven, ready-made additions arriving, should Spurs fans be content with the business done, or is the hunger for more signings a generational trait of modern football support? The pair also weigh up whether outgoings could have been handled better, and debate the situation of Mathys Tel, who finds himself left out of the Champions League squad. Should we feel sympathy for him or expect him to rise to the challenge like others before him? Paul also takes on a range of listener questions, from Bentancur’s contract situation to stadium naming rights, whether Lange has dropped the ball with the Champions League squad, and even shares the funniest Daniel Levy story he’s heard.

Jack is joined by Iain from Poddenham Podspur to make sense of Tottenham’s first Premier League defeat under new boss Thomas Frank. Did the manager get it wrong? Maybe so, but with Spurs still at the very beginning of this journey and basking in the glow of a European trophy, there’s little reason for panic. The conversation turns to new arrival Xavi Simons, what makes him such an exciting signing, and how his interviews reveal a mature young player ready to carry on the legacy of Son Heung-min’s number 7 shirt. Jack and Iain also look ahead to transfer deadline day. Who Spurs need, who they’d like to see, and what it all means for the season ahead. Finally, Iain talks about his own project, Poddenham Podspur – a podcast about Spurs podcasts. What began as a tongue-in-cheek idea has grown into something far more meaningful.

Tottenham have tasted defeat in the Premier League for the fist time under Thomas Frank after a hugely disappointing performance against Bournemouth at White Hart Lane. Not even the pre-match unveiling of Xavi Simons could inspire this Tottenham team to victory as they registered just one shot on target across the entire match.

Tottenham look set to pull off the most unlikely deal of the summer, bringing in Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig in a move agreed overnight. Most fans woke up to the news this morning and the reaction has been nothing short of delight. Jack is joined by Kish from Lilywhite Lab to discuss why this is a genuine statement signing. It’s the star factor Spurs have been craving all summer and a huge lift after the collapse of the Eze deal. We break down what makes Simons such an exciting addition, how his positivity and ambition fit perfectly into this Spurs project, and the impact he could have on the pitch alongside the likes of Sarr, Kudus and Solanke. You can hear more from Kish on the Lilywhite Lounge podcast and follow him across YouTube, TikTok and everywhere else at Lilywhite Lab. Theme tune is ‘Ghost Cat’ by Gillen.

In part two of our special with The Athletic’s Dan Kilpatrick, Jack puts your questions to him in a wide-ranging Q&A. Dan reflects on whether he misses the “tier one” status of being a Spurs beat reporter, shares the story behind his most accurate piece of transfer news, and talks about how his final exchange with Ange Postecoglou might have influenced his reporting. He also gives his verdict on Ange’s reaction to “Clowngate,” discusses Daniel Levy’s relationship with the media compared with fan protests, and considers whether Vinai Venkatesham will make a difference at Tottenham. Other listener questions cover which Spurs manager he most enjoyed interviewing and whether he regrets leaving the beat just as Thomas Frank arrived.
